Just so you know that dance in Abracadabra is the dance in Psy’s “Gentlemen” video and Gain (one of the members, she’s the center, visual, vocal and main dancer) was in that video. Also JeA (the main vocal and leader) was a vocal coach on Produce 101 (1st season) Miryo (Main rapper) was on the 1st season of “Show me the Money” (Korean rap survival show) and she was on “Unpretty Rapstar” (Korean rap survival show specifically for women) and Narsha (lead vocal and lead dancer) is the first BEG member to get married. JeA was involved in the selection of the members and they all have solo music careers.

Paradise Lost is iconic, and Gain has an amazing solo discography. Carnival (The Last Day), Fxxk U, and Tinkerbell are awesome as well.

Brown eyed girls were older (except Gain) and known for their vocals. And with their sexy concept, they were called "adult-dol" instead if Idol. But because of their solid vocal skills, they are very well respected in Korea. Their break through song was Abracadabra. It was really huge in Korea that year. The mv is sadly(?) not about gay love though. The kiss at the end was to kill the other girl out of jealousy (the poison pill in the mouth) because the guy cheated. They took a long break(4~5 yrs) and when they reunited last year. They didn't do so well. 3 of them are in their late 30s now. All of them had solo albums. I think Gain had the most success as a solo. Miryo (rapper) is the no. 1 credited female (followed by Moonbyul). Jea (main vocal) had a digital single this year called Greedyy featuring Moonbyul.

"Was Korea okay with this??" Well the censorship board sure as hell wasn't lmao too gay and too sexy for it to be broadcast. Oh yes, gaycatcher was in *full force* in that relay dance. The song itself was a hit, the dance was literally iconic and everyone was doing it. (The only reason it doesn't seem to be as well known outside of Korea is because it came out in 2009 - which was a bomb year for K-pop - Gee & Genie (SNSD), Sorry Sorry (Super Junior), Replay (Shinee)... SM was *dominating* the K-pop game in 2009. However, Psy used the dance of the chorus for his MV Gentleman - and even invited Gain to be in it too.) BEG is known to be a more mature/sexy group - 3 of them (JeA, Miryo, Narsha) were born in 1981, and Gain is something like 5-7 years younger, so they've always been a little more sexy than some of the younger counterparts. Their MVs don't always have a dark undertone to them, and yes they didn't care what the trends were, they did themselves. Their rapper is Miryo - literally one of the best rappers in all of Korea, hands down. JeA is the one that did the first part of the high note in Sixth Sense, Gain did the second part (she's the one that you said had a really bright voice). Narsha was the one who did the 'meow' part. You might like: Brand New World (very retro sound), Warm Hole (this was.. lmao I still can't believe that they were allowed to perform this one *live* because the lyrics are super suggestive.), Kill Bill, and probably Wonder Woman for the groups. Gain's solos: Bloom, Paradise Lost.

Kei is a great vocalist but she doesnt have the right oomph for it, imo. At best, maybe Dreamcatcher too could do it, but idk. (And they're one of my top GGs) MAYBE Red Velvet (Wendy and Seulgi are certainly vocally capable but not sure about the right attitude for Wendy) Sistar was capable of it too.

Abracadabra is a LEGENDARY song. It’s still a song talked about and covered today. It’s one of those songs where if you stick around Kpop long enough, you’ve definitely heard it at least once. Brown Eyed Girls are a legendary group, they’re the oldest continuously active girl group with no line up changes. All members have moved on to have solo careers but they still drop new music together every once in awhile.

when I tell you I SPRINTED to this video when I got the notification. Brown Eyed girls is my favorite 2nd gen group

Yay finally!! BEG!! hahaha Gain is the one with short hair, and she is the sexy maknae as Hwasa is for Mamamoo! hahaha When I first saw Sixth Sense (it was 2013/2014) I was very impacted by it, because it's a very fierce song and also that high note... hahaha I also had to see it live, I think they can kinda do it, but it usually sounds wrong... When Gain gets it right, Narsha (the girl that finishes the thing) doesn't get it right and vice versa Back in the day they were one of the best vocal groups in general, as groups have this tendency of half of them being good singers and the other not so well...

In case you were wondering, these are their positions!: Jea (does the "hit that high" part) - leader, main vocalist Miryo (does the rap part) - main rapper Narsha (the one in the sandy room with the leopard print clothes) - lead vocalist, lead dancer Gain (the one that reminded you of Hwasa) - sub vocalist, main dancer, face of the group, maknae Brown Eyed Girls debuted back in 2006 and are considered an incredibly iconic and influential group in Korea. They are sort of similar to Mamamoo in the way that they are a vocal based group with a strong rapper and prioritize talent over visuals. Some other songs by them that I recommend would be Kill Bill, Warm Hole, L.O.V.E., and my personal favorite Cleansing Cream. All of the members also have solo music as well, with Gain being the most successful out of the group (I Bloom, Paradise Lost, and Apple if you are interested in listening to her solo music). The group is still together and don't seem like their gonna disband any time soon but nowadays they only have a comeback about every 2-4 years.

BEG were the 2nd generation of MAMAMOO, their music and videos were unique and dark around this era of KPop. They started out in R&B and changed their style their vocals were top-notch too!

BEG totally nail those high notes in their live performances. Also, abracadabra was a massive hit

Oh yes, Brown Eyed Girls are great and Abracadabra is one of the most iconic kpop songs and music videos.

Brown Eyed Girls was a vocal group and actually did R&B when they debuted. They transitioned into more pop music and became trend setters. They are still active and released an album of covers last year I believe. They usually release full albums every 2-3 years. Their freedom happened because the label they were under was an indie label. The leader Jea actually formed the group. Narsha was a friend from high school and she sought out Miryo because she was a well known rapper at the time. Miryo writes all her own raps in all their songs. I think she has the most lyric copyrights to her name out of any other female artist in Korea (if not, she is close). Their last member Gain is actually 6 years younger than the other members and was chosen from an audition. And since you talked about whistle notes kzread.info/dash/bejne/fYauyZiapJSoXdI.html kzread.info/dash/bejne/p36Ltcd_dafbico.html This was their performance at the KBS Drama Awards on December 31, 2019. They performed short performances of Sixth Sense, Abracadabra, and their latest release Wonder Woman from 2019. kzread.info/dash/bejne/dKGp1LysqNHcn7g.html

Brown eyed girls was an it group back in the day. They were part of the trend setters and people loved them. But they were always an adult type group and even stated they wanted to do adult concerts so they didn’t have to edit anything. Sixth sense live is amazing and yes they do those high notes live. It’s wonderful. They are still together and are the oldest group to stay together and never change members. Definitely check out abandoned cause the slow song really showcases their vocals and harmonies.

One of their comparatively recent song ‘brave new world’ is also masterpiece.... In Korea there are so many people both like brown eyed girls& mamamoo! Gain’s solo music videos are so good too’ I hope you listen to their song more

I believe Hwasa has the same vibe and she got it by listening to her music & performance They can literally hit the high notes in the song. You need to find their live performance when they were Kyungnam Opening.

im just saying whenever i saw Mamamoo they remind me of Brown Eyed Girls. dont know why but i felt that a lot.. maybe their personality or maybe their musical freedom that made me feel that way.. anyhow i stan both!!

"What is this group?" Legends, my friend absolute legends.

Please listen to “Abandoned” from their last album. It shows how great their vocals are! PS: You até correct. They still are trendsetters. Their vídeo for “Wonder Woman” was the first mainstream kpop vídeo with drag queens.

You have quite the ride ahead of you. BEG were (are, they're still active) popular, trendsetting, and controversial all at the same time. They paved the way for groups like mamamoo. Their early stuff is a lot of mid 2000s sounding R&B with some bubblegum pop thrown in. They really broke through with Abracadabra, which is universally known in Korea and easily one of the top 3 defining songs of 2nd gen kpop. They've all done solo work as well, Gain being the most prolific (and provocative). They're all vocally talented (except for the rapper who doesn't sing at all) and I think you'll love them. I go back and forth between BEG and Mamamoo as my ultimate fave group. Edit: to be clear, the rapper is extraordinarily talented, one of kpops best imo, she just doesn't sing (unlike moonbyul, who both raps and sings). Didn't want anyone to get it twisted, I love miryo.

I am a moomoo and brown eyed girls was one of my favorite group in second generation. This group has great vocals just like our beloved Mamamoo. The girl with bright voice, Gain, has many awesome solo songs. And you really need to listen to a cover from JeA, Despacito - JeA with Juwon Park (Offical Video) (Cover), this is the best despacito cover ever!!!

Iconic I love Brown Eyed Girls

Either oh my girl or lovelyz did cover this (6th sense) on queendom. Also worth checking out. And yeah they were one of the original bad girl / girl crush groups, thats so popular right now. And yeah the first video was banned from TV because it was that sexy. They had to cut the part where they dance on the floor for it to be broadcasted. They were popular at that time, but don't know if it was controversial. But yeah they definitely influenced aaaaaaaa lot of the GGs after them. They even from time to time do some things today. Some of them also released solo stuff that's worth checking out 😊

Brown Eyed Girls really helped push the envelope in South Korea with "Abracadabra", especially since 3 of the members were much older than the age of most idols at the time, so they weren't afraid of doing a much more risque concept. And then "Abracadabra" blew up and pretty much everyone knows the song and its iconic "arrogant dance". They debuted in 2006, and are the longest-running girl group without any member changes, even releasing music at the start of this year! The leader, JeA, actually scouted out each of the other members. She had done some OST work herself. She picked Narsha, who she remembered as being a good singer from high school, and Miryo, who had been a well-known rapper from the "Honey Family", a group from the late 90s or so. Ga In was scouted when she failed an audition and met Narsha in the bathroom afterward, and was invited to join. Fun fact, Narsha has a small star tattoo on her right wrist, and may be the first female idol - or idol in general - to have such a visible tattoo. Miryo is the OG female rapper and imo the most iconic female rap voice in K-pop. Also, Ga In really defied beauty conventions at the time for her signature single-eye line look, compared to the "ideal" double-eye lines. "Sixth Sense" was a statement against censorship, and is super iconic especially after the cover of it in Queendom. Yes, the members were vocals-first, and this is more apparent in their pre-"Abracadabra" songs and their ballads, in particular "Cleansing Cream" (released right after "Sixth Sense") and "Abandoned" (released last year!). Also, this is probably the best live performance of those high notes: kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZYV7mpKel62cmMY.html (JeA first, then Ga In, then Narsha)

Miryo.. it is not just.. a rapper, it’s THE rapper

Abracadabra 2PM and 2AM parody version! 👀😂 Iconic too

If you like mamamoo you for sure will like BEG. They are absolute vocal queens. They are also older than your average GG but still going strong (they're all in their 30s and releasing phenomenal bops). Also they are the most credited girl group in kpop EVER (meaning most registered songs w the members as lyricists/composers/producers). Miryo, the rapper, is a BEAST, she's the most credited female lyricist in kpop and produces so much of their music! A queen. With the release of travel, mamamoo are now the second most credited female group in kpop only after BEG. Really excellent taste to stan them both because they're both dripping with raw talent 👏👏👏👏

Sixth sense is one of my favorites Kpop songs

BEG was a big moment in history of south korea thats for sure

There's a ton of 2nd gen with sexy concept yet talented, one of them is Girl's Day, you can check their MV Girl's Day - Something

I love BEG! They are still one of my favorite groups. Also as a Mamamoo fan, I have always thought that MMM is like the Brown Eyed Girls of the 3rd gen. 2 groups with a mature image, amazing vocals, great rapping, concepts/comebacks that a out of the norm, and both groups freely do what they want. BEG debuted in 2006 (at a later age than most kpop idols with the exception of member Gain) as vocal R&B/ballad group and at first chose to not appear in the media so people would focus on their vocal talent rather than they're visuals. As music started to trend away from R&B are more towards pop they transitioned. Abracadabra was a huge hit in Korea though the video was rated 19+ and they had to alter parts of their choreography so they could perform it on tv. As for song recommendations: I got fooled by you (older R&B song), love, cleansing cream, brave new world and wonder woman.

Tbh, before Mamamoo, BEGs were known for their vocal in kpop. The group's mvs (both solo or not) were dark and spooky. If you're interested, you could check out Gain's or Narsha's solo song like "paradise lost" (for its production) and "bbi ri bba bba", both mvs of these song are just spooky and a lot of Gain's songs are bold sexual liberation songs which i loved while Narsha's vocal is quite good. And yeah before Hwasa, Gain along with Hyuna, Hyolyn were known to be sexy icons. And yes, they were trend-setter in the past, i remember when they came out with abracadabra, suddenly every girlgroups changed their style from cute to sexy lol

Omg! I love that you're reacting to Brown Eyed Girls!! Definitely gave me so much throwback moments ❤❤

Yay! Glad you like BEG. Fyi, the one who you said gives you hwasa vibes is Gain (Ga-in) and she has some great solo songs you may want to check out

Yes Brown eyed girls did do that extremely high note live. Narsha was my favorite member and she has a single called 'Bbi Ri Bba Bba' which was my favorite.

Abracadabra was released when I was in my military service. And every soldiers in my company loved this song. Literally EVERYONE. This is one of the most iconic song in kpop history 😆

Sixth Sense is like a musical drama. I mean I'd pay to listen to more of it. And yes, Abracadabra is iconic and even new groups perform it

Yes yes im waiting for this 😍😍😍😍

Hint: during there time they are the vocal group. Yes, they sing it live during performance like Mamamoo. Edit: the difference of the two groups is the concepts. One is more on a sexy concepts and the other one is more on a girl crush concepts.

As the songs gained huge popularity, they have developed like current idol groups. They performed cute dance songs before Abracadabra and were able to make a successful image change again, starting with the Abracadabra song.

They are like goddess in kpop. They have their own way always innovating. And the live is just amazing!!!!!!

Yess they WERE iconic! Especially abracadabra. Everyone I know knew that song when it came out. There were so many iconic kpop songs around this era compared to now

Austin, you don't know how much of a surprise when I saw this title. I'm a huge fan of BEG and used to follow their every comeback until I got too busy to follow up with Kpop, but I was obsessed with them and the one with short hair specifically. Her name's Son Ga-in and I'd say personality-wise, she's more like Wheein. You asked if these songs were iconic, yes they were. Every kpop idols grew up listening to them in a way, and MMM was comparably the "new BEG". BEG debuted as a vocal group, if you check out their first and second album (my personal favourite), you'd find a lot of vocal-heavy songs. You also asked if the songs back then were dark, yes, they were. 2nd gen had a lot of dark themed songs and I really liked that hehe Abracadabra was in their 3rd album and the transformation between the first 2 albums and that comeback shocked everyone. It basically was the push that got them worldwide recognition. Their popularity grew and they released SIGN then Sixth Sense. But I think they had really bad luck with their management company, so they missed the chance to go even bigger. Not to mention they had their KILL BILL comeback after 2 years of solo promotions. That really didn't work in their favour since they were really riding the high with their previous promotions. I feel like while they're still very popular and well known in Korea, their international fans, like me, have died out a little. It's quite disheartening because they did start out as a group that's different from the trend and slowly, they sort of lost their colour, imo (or maybe created a new one is a better choice of word). I still love and respect them for what they do though, but I wouldn't say I'm a fan of their songs now.

Ugh, you had to upload right as I was getting ready for bed. Guess I get to watch a fresh reaction to one of the most amazing GGs in kpop history

This is why the 2nd Generation are the best thing that ever happened in kpop industry, they all legends and have their own color, we have BIG BANG, SUPER JUNIOR, 2 PM, SNSD, 2NE1, WONDER GIRLS AND BROWN EYED GIRLS.....i misss them 😔

Brown Eyed Girls haven't given a f what the korean public thought for the past 14 years...and have been thriving. They left their record label in 2015 and unlike other groups who would of had to disband....took their name with them cause they're bosses. Fun fact, rapper Miryo is a legend and an underground rapper from the underground group honey family. They have always been amazingly progressive. Check out their video "brave new world" 2015 celebrating free thought, the EXTREMELY CONTROVERSIAL "warm hole" 2015 about female sexuality and the LGBT themed "wonder woman" 2019 (as three of the members hit 40 years old), as proof of that.

"You know I'm gonna have to see if they can do that live" - spoiler, yes they can, there is actually a high note part compilation video of this song on youtube.

They do it live. All of it. JeA (jee-uh) is the first note, Gain (gah-een) second, and Narsha does the run back down to human frequencies. Miryo is the rapper. The bright voice is Gain, nearly 10 years younger than the others, who were about 30 filming Sixth Sense m/v.

Abracadabra is on my permanent playlist. Yes, they were very risque for that time which is why the MV is rated 15 and above. That hip dance is so popular and iconic that Psy put it in his "Gentleman" choreography and even put the maknae of Brown Eyed Girls, Ga-In in the music video.

Wow you reacted to Brown Eyed Girls! I started watching your channel yesterday because of Dreamcatcher. I'm an Everlasting (BEG fandom name) and a baby Insomnia (3 weeks old) because I discovered them through their Abracadabra cover and fell in love just like with BEG. Some information on Brown Eyed Girls and I'm going to link some performances down below. They debuted with full album (15 songs) on March 2nd, 2006 as R'n'B group. At the end of the year they won award of Best New Artist at Seoul Music Awards. In terms of longevity, of active groups they are the longest running currently with 14,5 years and are 2nd of all time if I'm not mistaken. Their (very small) company decided to change not just concept but whole genre and through 2007-2008 they switched to more Dance/Kpop. You won't believe it but their live stages in 2007-2008 were... cutesy. It's almost as shocking as Minx :D In 2009 they switched to sexy concept. Members: Another remarkable thing is Unnie line debuted at Korean age 26. This is very very late. When they did Abracadabra they were 29 years old and Sixth Sense - 31. 1) JeA (Kim Hyojin) Sept. 18, 1981 Leader, Main Vocal. 2) Miryo (Jo Mihye) Nov. 2, 1981 Main rapper, guitar (in early years) 3) Narsha (Park Hyojin) Dec. 28, 1981 Lead vocal, lead dancer 4) Gain (Son Gain) Sept. 20, 1987 Edit: forgot to write position: Main Dancer, Vocal, Maknae, Visual, Face of the Group All have solo works.

I haven't even gotten to the actual reaction yet, I'm just here to cry with joy that you're reacting to these women.

Also, yes, they're still active! All of them are in their 30s and aren't as active as groups like Mamamoo, but they all have solo careers. JeA (leader) even featured Moonbyul on a recent song called Greedyy (yes, two ys).

BEG is one of the most revolutionary KPOP groups. They were daring and pushed the boundaries in KPOP. They were one of the few mature groups in the sea of bright, young and bubble gum pop. They were all in their mid-20s when they debuted, which wasn't common as most groups debut in their teens. And they were successful. They have great vocals and house one of the best Korean female rappers.

from what I remember, they have a hard time hitting notes sometimes but that can partially be due to how much more specialized idols used to be. the main vocal basically sings ALL the high notes so I can imagine she gets tired out. the rapper only appears during her one rap part. but highly suggest you check them out live because of their charisma. the short haired "bright" voice one is Gain and SUPER trend-setter, and their main vocalist is known to be amazing

The whistle? Yeah they did that live without music once on a variety show coz the host waa curious abt whether they can do it live or not as well (narsha the cat girl and gain the black haired one did the whistle together). I forgot the video but its on youtube

I feel like you’d love Gain from Brown Eyed Girls. she is maknae and she got very beautiful solos!!!

wow I'm not sure if I need to feel for you, tons of comments here :D brown eyed girls started out as a ballad group so they are all good singers. jea is actually a vocal coach. but you can imagine they were struggling as a ballad group so they slowly went into pop and totally switched it up to something extremely sexy like abracadabra which was their breakout song(due to the hip sway dance that became iconic). I actually like a lot of their ballads but not as much their newer(relatively speaking lol) pop songs.

Somes clip mv of them i sure you will love and suprise: sign, kill bill and mv solo of narsha (member) : ppiri ppappa And another MV very interesting: going crazy by song ji eun, grace by lee soo young, cry cry by t-ara

Yes T-Ara! Queens 🥺🥺

They are now older (and were already pretty old in kpop sense) and i believe two of the members are vocal professors in university teaching. Ga-In, the youngest member still actively getting songs out as a solo artist though.

The most iconic K-pop song ever...still 2021

Abracadabra was so iconic Psy paid to license that section of the hip dance for his song after gangnam style (gentleman) and had ga-in (short hair woman) in the MV.

You've asked, during the Sixth Sense reaction if they did the "high tone/pitch" part live and to answer that, yes they did but as I can recall, Narsha, the one who does the "meow" part had to restrain doing that part as she had a surgery or a problem with her vocal (cords?) or smthn so yeah she had to use back-up vocals for her part. This was supposed to be the duration to showcase their vocal prowess.

They’re one of the vocally strongest and most stable kpop girl groups of all time (yes do check out their live perfs)! Do cover ‘Cleansing Cream’ too please, if you can :)

Ahhhh~~~ the nostalgia! This was my bop 10 yrs ago!

"Abracadabra" is still iconic to this day, so many covers to this song, but the best would probably EXID, the resemblance to the BEG is uncanny tbh.

They are one of the 2nd Gen Ssen unni because of their age and appearances. All of them have powerful vocal and their rapper is fire too 😁
